How it feels

A gentle puzzle-platformer where you switch colors to solve peaceful, handcrafted levels and face unique bosses at a relaxed pace.

What players say

Players praise the creative puzzle-platforming and unique boss fights, but many report steep difficulty spikes and levels that rely on trial and error or precise timing. The game has menu navigation issues without a controller, a single music track, and a broken save point in late-game level 30 that can corrupt run states.
